Part VI. X + Window Managers

X Libraries

This chapter does not contain libraries that are required to run
X. It does contain libraries that
enhance X. In some cases the
enhancement is as simple as font support. In others it is as complex
as libraries that sit between X and
applications that run on X whose
purpose is to standardize the look and feel and inter-process
communications for different applications. They also assist
programmers by supplying common elements.
